21N Transcript of recorded statement (1) Despite any other law, the prosecution in a domestic violence offence proceeding is not required to provide a transcript of a recorded statement for the proceeding to the defendant or the defendant's legal practitioner. (2) In a jury trial, the court may order that a transcript of all or part of the evidence given in the form of a recorded statement be supplied to the jury if the court considers that a transcript would be likely to help the jury understand the evidence.
